Default [OT] Did you ever wonder what it cost a spammer to SPAM you?

I received this SPAM in
my webmasters account at windingstream.com.
Note: I don't even have an account named "webmaster" but my host makes that a default and it gets sent to me anyway.

"MARKETING SERVICES

Get your own mail server, dedicated to sending just your message for a week
or even a month

Dedicated Servers 1Week - 8 million plus emails sent $750 (Less than $100.00
cost per million)
Dedicated Servers 1Month - 32 million plus emails sent $2000 ($62.50 cost
per million)"

Anybody want to go into business with me? I have a special scientifically
proven snake oil herbal remedy for anything and everything. This is
absolutely guaranteed.
It will enlarge your penis and your breast, give you more "youthful stamina" than viagra, Make you smartter and better looking and....

Then, a few cents per person. Well, everyone knows the average citizen is nothing more than a sheep to be fleeced. The people with the shears just get upset 'cause they have to stand in line.

Wow...much cheaper than junk snail-mail. Yet still I've been getting at least one glossy catalog per week Lastely from a company that I haven't bought anything from for at least three years. I hope those guys never get my e-mail address.
